Seeing the expressions of the three of them as if they were facing a formidable enemy, Lei Xiao looked stern and immediately asked: "What's going on? Is it because there are the auras of other strong men around the territory?"

"Lord Qi, to be precise, it's not a certain person, but an entire army." Nan Xing's pretty face was filled with a stern look, and she frowned slightly.

"Yes, this aura is huge and messy. Although the strength of each individual component is very limited, when gathered together, it presents a uniform and cold feeling.

It can be clearly felt that this is a force that cannot be ignored. According to my guess, it should be a professional team that has experienced blood and fire. "

I saw the knotweed concentrating on it, sensing the approaching danger, and spoke.

"Approximately how many people are there? From what direction are they coming?"

At this time, Lei Xiao's heart began to beat loudly, and the meat skewers in his hands suddenly lost their flavor.

Faced with this sudden life-and-death crisis, his scalp was numb. He first signaled to the three people in front of him not to let other first-order subordinates notice it for the time being, and then lowered his voice.

There is no doubt that before things become clear, it is better not to cause large-scale panic in the territory for the time being.

"Back to Lord, the number of people is estimated to be between 2,000 and 3,000. Most of them are composed of first-level soldiers, and a small number are second-level soldiers. However, we do not rule out the emergence of higher-level strong men.

As for the direction, it is in the northeast direction. Currently, it is marching towards us. "

He looked around to make sure there were no other subordinates. After noticing the movement here, Hezhuang looked serious and said again.

Undoubtedly, with his level 5 strength, even if one man confronts an army of this level head-on, he can escape unscathed, or simply kill the opponent until they lose their armor.

However, the current situation is completely different.

The battlefield is changing rapidly and the situation is treacherous, and our base camp is right here.

If during the battle, the opponent sends a surprise force to take the opportunity to make a sneak attack, the consequences will undoubtedly be disastrous.

After all, the protective shield only has one day left, and by then, the entire territory will be completely exposed to the enemy.

As a fifth-level berserker, coupled with the fifth-level dragon-slaying sword rewarded by the lord, if he is given a certain amount of time, it is not impossible to completely eliminate this power.

But what if this is just the enemy's vanguard force or a decoy force?

Knotweed, who spent time in the military before accepting the call, clearly understands.

War is not different from a one-on-one duel with someone, but requires facing thousands of well-organized and terrifying opponents at the same time.

A well-trained army with high morale can often exert terrifying power several times, or even dozens of times, as an individual!

It can be seen that among thousands of armies, no matter how strong the individual is, it is only a small force in Taicang. At most, it can influence the local area, but it is difficult to affect the overall situation.

An experienced commander has too many means to disperse the enemy's combat power, then go straight to Huanglong and break through the enemy's base camp in one fell swoop.

Although he can fight with tiger stick, after all, there is only one person who can fully protect the lord during a breakout or other actions, and he can do it with ease.

But once the enemy attacks the territory from all directions, the situation will become critical.

"2,000 to 3,000 people, northeast..."

On the other side, Lei Xiao, who forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart and felt the hairs all over his body stand on end, calmed down and tried to think calmly as much as possible.

According to the information previously obtained, there is a continuous mountain range to the north of the territory.

The two human kingdoms closest to the territory are not in that direction.

So, here comes the problem.

Where did this sudden power come from?

The most important thing is that I only have two days to travel here.

The location of the territory has never been exposed.

How could it possibly attract such a large number of enemies?

Furthermore, let’s take a step back.

Even when encountering Kombu during the day, the location of the territory was accidentally exposed.

But the merchant and mercenary had already left by boat from the west, and this direction didn't match up at all...

To sum up, based on the current intelligence analysis, there is obviously only one possibility left.

"Could it be that...the other party's target is not actually my territory?"

After realizing this, Lei Xiao felt a little relieved and began to continue thinking.

"Then, what else is there in this forest that could attract such a late-night march here?"

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao was startled, and then he had the answer in his heart.

"Lord, what should we do next?"

On the other side, feeling the other party's breath getting closer and closer, Nan Xing's delicate little face was almost completely covered with anxiety. Nan Yue on the side also showed the same expression.

I saw two pairs of identical autumn eyes, facing each other, and they could see obvious uneasiness in each other's eyes.

"Don't worry, if my prediction is correct, the other party's target is not actually us."

After touching Nan Xing and Nan Yue's heads one by one, he told the two girls not to be nervous, Lei Xiao smiled and said.

"Lord, do you mean that the other party has other plans?" On the other side, looking at Lei Xiao's calm expression, Huzhang couldn't help but wonder.

"exactly."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao took a bite of the already cold meat skewers in his hand, and replied confidently: "I think, since it is a rapid march, then the opponent should change their marching route soon."

Sure enough, when Lei Xiao finished picking up the big bunch of strings in his hand.

Almost at the same time, Huzhang, Nanxing and Nanyue all sensed the army and did not continue to approach the territory. Instead, they turned around and started heading south.

Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, especially Polygonum Weed, who looked at Lei Xiao with an uncontrollable look of reverence.

There is no doubt that in a battlefield littered with corpses, the only individual who can determine the outcome of the entire battle is naturally the army commander who is above all the armies!

An excellent commander, even if a large army is pressing down on the situation, facing the turbulent waves, he can still be fearless in the face of danger, make decisions before taking action, strategize at the snap of his fingers, and make the enemy bloody for thousands of miles.

And from what happened just now, it can be clearly seen that the Lord in front of him undoubtedly already possesses such characteristics!

Thinking of this, Polygonum Weed's heart couldn't help but start to surge with excitement.

It seems that I am really lucky to be able to sign a contract with such a lord, and it is also the most correct choice I have made in my life!
